Pakistan's Young Batsman Dies After Being Hit By Bouncer

Young cricketer Zubair died in Mardan after cricket ball hit him on the head during a match.

Just a day before Australian vice-captain, David Warner, was hit by Josh Hazlewood delivery during Australia's intra-practice match, Pakistan's young cricketer, Zubair Ahmed, lost his life being hit by a bouncer in a game in Mardan (Pakistan).

The tragedy brings back memories of Phil Hughes who died after being hit by a bouncer.

The Pakistan Cricket Board expressed grief at the death of the youngster and said it was a reminder that safety gear must be worn at all times. "Our sympathies with Zubair's family", reads a tweet by the PCB.
